Defensive driving training opportunity this Friday

The Office of Environmental Health and Safety at Mississippi State University is offering the National Safety Council's defensive driving course at no charge to employees, including student workers. The defensive driving course offers practical strategies to reduce collision-related injuries, fatalities, and costs.

After participating in the one-day session delivered by MSU Safety Officer Alicia Musselwhite, attendees will receive a nationally-recognized certification from the National Safety Council. The NSC's certifications are accepted in more states than any other driver improvement or driver education program for insurance discounts.

This session is limited to 15 participants and a minimum of seven attendees must be present to hold the class.

Upcoming training sessions and locations include:

-- Friday, Sept. 27 from 8 a.m. to noon in Room 119 at the Institute for Genomics, Biocomputing and Biotechnology in the Pace Seed Building
